Software Setup The included CD-ROM contains the Silicon Laboratories Integrated Development Environment (IDE), Keil software 8051 tools, and additional documentation. Insert the CD-ROM into your PC’s CD-ROM drive. An installer will automatically launch, allowing you to install the IDE software or read documentation by clicking buttons on the installation panel. If the installer does not automatically start when you insert the CD-ROM, run autorun.exe found in the root directory of the CD-ROM. Refer to the readme.txt file on the CD-ROM for the latest information regarding known IDE problems and restrictions. 6. Silicon Laboratories Integrated Development Environment (IDE) The Silicon Laboratories IDE integrates a source code editor, source-level debugger, and in-system Flash programmer. The IDE uses the Keil 8051 Tools by default. An evaluation version of the Keil tools with a 2 k code size limit is included with this kit. The use of third-party compilers and assemblers is also supported. 6.1. System Requirements The Silicon Laboratories IDE requirements are as follows:  Pentium-class host PC running Microsoft Windows 2000 or later  One available USB port. 6.2. Using the Keil Software 8051 Tools with the Silicon Laboratories IDE To perform source-level debugging with the IDE, you must configure the Keil 8051 tools to generate an absolute object file in the OMF-51 format with object extensions and debug records enabled. You may build the OMF-51 absolute object file by calling the Keil 8051 tools at the command line (e.g., batch file or make file) or by using the project manager built into the IDE. The default configuration when using the Silicon Laboratories IDE project manager enables object extension and debug record generation. Refer to “AN104: Integrating Keil 8051 Tools into the Silicon Labs IDE” in the “SiLabs\MCU\Documentation\Appnotes” directory for additional information on using the Keil 8051 tools with the Silicon Laboratories IDE. To build an absolute object file using the Silicon Laboratories IDE project manager, you must first create a project. A project consists of a set of files, IDE configuration, debug views, and a target build configuration (a list of files and tool configurations used as input to the assembler, compiler, and linker when building an output object file). The following sections illustrate the steps necessary to manually create a project with one or more source files, build a program, and download the program to the target in preparation for debugging. (The IDE will automatically create a single-file project using the currently open and active source file if you select Build/Make Project before a project is defined.) 6.2.1. Creating a New Project Perform the following steps: 1. Select Project->New Project to open a new project and reset all configuration settings to default. 2. Select File->New File to open an editor window. Create your source file(s), and save the file(s) with a recognized extension, such as .c, .h, or .asm, to enable color syntax highlighting. 3. Right-click on “New Project” in the Project Window. Select Add files to project. Select files in the file browser, and click Open. Continue adding files until all project files have been added. 4. For each of the files in the Project Window that you want assembled, compiled, and linked into the target build, right-click on the file name, and select Add file to build. Each file will be assembled or compiled as appropriate (based on its file extension) and linked into the build of the absolute object file. Note: If a project contains a large number of files, the “Group” feature of the IDE can be used to organize them. Right-click on “New Project” in the Project Window. Select Add Groups to project. Add predefined groups, or add customized groups. Right-click on the group name, and choose Add file to group. Select the files to be added. Continue adding files until all project files have been added. Rev. 0.1 7 C8051F411-EK 6.2.2. Building and Downloading the Program for Debugging 1. Once all source files have been added to the target build, build the project by clicking on the Build/MakeProject button in the toolbar or selecting Project->Build/Make Project from the menu.Note: After the project has been built the first time, the Build/Make Project command will only build the files that have been changed since the previous build. To rebuild all files and project dependencies, click on the Rebuild All button in the toolbar or select Project->Rebuild All from the menu. 2. Before connecting to the target device, several connection options may need to be set. Open theConnection Options window by selecting Options->Connection Options... in the IDE menu. First, selectthe adapter that was included with the kit in the “Serial Adapter” section. Next, the correct “Debug Interface”must be selected. C8051F41x family devices use the Silicon Labs 2-wire (C2) debug interface. Once all theselections are made, click the OK button to close the window. 3. Click the Connect button in the toolbar or select Debug->Connect from the menu to connect to the device. 4. Download the project to the target by clicking the Download Code button in the toolbar.Note: To enable automatic downloading if the program build is successful select Enable automatic con-nect/download after build in the Project->Target Build Configuration dialog. If errors occur during the build process, the IDE will not attempt the download. 5. Save the project when finished with the debug session to preserve the current target build configuration,editor settings and the location of all open debug views. To save the project, select Project->Save ProjectAs... from the menu. Create a new name for the project and click on Save. 6.2.3. Downloading the C8051F411 Evaluation Board Demonstration Firmware To download the demonstration code to the C8051F411 evaluation board, follow steps 2 and 3 in “6.2.2. Building and Downloading the Program for Debugging”. The demonstration code can be found in C:Silabs\MCU\Demos\C8051F411EK\F411EK_DEMO.hex by default. 8 Rev. 0.1 Figure 5.
